For a small island Great Britain has a great length of coastline, and there is no place in the whole country which is more than three hours’ journey by car from the sea. The coast is very varied, with perhaps the best parts in the southwest of England and in the west of Scotland. The coast of Devon and Cornwall, in the south-west, is much indented (向内陆凹进), with many sheltered bays and fine rough points of land extending out into the sea. With so large a population on so small an island the best parts of the coast are inevitably rather crowded during the summer, but much of Devon and Cornwall is still unspoiled, with many picturesque (风景如画的) fishing villages. The other parts of the coast are less dramatic, being partly fiat and partly steep.
In the parts nearest to great centres of population big seaside-resort (海淀胜地) towns have grown up. Four of these, Brighton, Bournemouth and Southend in the south, and Blackpool in the north-west, have become important towns thems
A. a week
B. a fortnight
C. 3 hours or less
D. more than 3 hours

For good or ill, globalization has become the economic buzz-word of the 1990s. National economies are undoubtedly becoming steadily more integrated as cross-border flows of trade, investment and financial capital increase. Consumers are buying more foreign goods, a growing number of firms now operate across national borders, and savers are investing more than ever before in far-flung places.
Whether all of this is for good or ill is a topic of heated debate. One positive view is that globalization is an unmixed blessing, with the potential to boost productivity and living standards everywhere. This is because a globally integrated economy can lead to a better division of labor between countries, allowing low-wage countries to specialize in labor-intensive tasks while highwage countries use workers in more productive ways. It will allow firms to exploit bigger economies of scale. And with globalization, capital can be shifted to whatever country offers the most productive
A. allow low-wage countries to use workers in more productive ways
B. help low-wage countries get rid of labor-intensive economy
C. enable firms to exploit bigger economies of scale
D. cause capital to shift to countries where there is greatest fund shortage
